Since the scalar is scoped to the scope of the subroutine and the thread logic was outside of that function I was attempting to pass the handle as an argument to the thread, which fails in various ways.

Hi, to me it seems like it works the same way, just no globals or no closures 

#!/usr/bin/perl --
use strict;
use warnings;
use autodie qw/ open close /;
use threads stack_size => 4096;
{
    open my $fh, '<', __FILE__;
    threads->create(\&close_once, $fh )->join;
    threads->create(\&close_twice, $fh )->join;
    close $fh;
    close $fh; ## 11
}
sub close_once {
    my( $fh ) = @_;
    close $fh;
}
sub close_twice {
    my( $fh ) = @_;
    close $fh;
    eval { close $fh; 1 } or warn $@; ## 20
    return;
}
